Writer Be Aware of Fraudulent Books (AI-generated) uploaded on Amazon and Goodreads

Writers Be Aware. If you're an avid writer and marketing your books you probably know Jane Friedman. Her post yesterday was about "the flood of AI content now published at Amazon [and Goodreads] sometimes attributed to authors in a misleading or fraudulent manner."

She says "Garbage books are getting uploaded to Amazon where my name is credited as the author."

And she is not the only author this is happening to. Please read this:

Amazon KDP New Policy on Generative AI

FYI, Amazon is now requiring KDP to disclose the use of generative-AI.

On KDP Forum:

https://www.kdpcommunity.com/s/articl...

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI) CONTENT (TEXT, IMAGES, OR TRANSLATIONS)
We require you to inform us of AI-generated content (text, images, or translations) when you publish a new book or make edits to and republish an existing book through KDP. AI-generated images include cover and interior images and artwork. You are not required to disclose AI-assisted content. We distinguish between AI-generated and AI-assisted content as follows:
AI-generated: We define AI-generated content as text, images, or translations created by an AI-based tool. If you used an AI-based tool to create the actual content (whether text, images, or translations), it is considered "AI-generated," even if you applied substantial edits afterwards.

AI-assisted: If you created the content yourself, and used AI-based tools to edit, refine, error-check, or otherwise improve that content (whether text or images), then it is considered "AI-assisted" and not “AI-generated.” Similarly, if you used an AI-based tool to brainstorm and generate ideas, but ultimately created the text or images yourself, this is also considered "AI-assisted" and not “AI-generated.” It is not necessary to inform us of the use of such tools or processes.

You are responsible for verifying that all AI-generated and/or AI-assisted content adheres to all content guidelines. For example, to confirm an AI-based tool did not create content based on copyrighted works, you're required to review and edit any AI tool outputs.
